Fingers and toes, basic math 5 Mhz vice 200khz. Not sure I follow, is this from Table one and text on page 6? Computer Simulations are only as good as the assumptions used. Seems like many variables, plus antenna patterns and with so many problems with installing new masts. Thousands of new masts needed? In So Cal they use plastic Palm trees to hide the masts. Fingers are good, multipath is bad. Using fingers to combine the three strongest signals should be better than an adaptive equalizer using only one. Any comments on the following Dr J quotes? Especially the difficulties that US firms have doing business overseas and having to comply with the random rules by the Nitwits in the house and senate? Like the old oil, new oil stuff that got Marc Rich in the news. And the rules on fees (bribes?). Good for US investors to dig into ADRs, especially with companies under Governments, like that one big green Euro country on my four color map, that seem to feel they should support, not hamper their industry. snip IBD: If Beijing and Washington go into conflict, could U.S. corporate interests be held hostage in China? Jacobs: We might (already) have been held hostage. We had signed a memorandum of understanding with Unicom, the second-largest carrier in China. We were very positive. We had our press conferences.

We play by more strict rules than others might Snip And now for something completely different.

Or something like Goldie Hawn's speculation on the name of an Airline created by the merger of Trans World Airlines and some other company with a name starting with a "T? It sure seems like WAY TOO much cross posting, especially offensive posts. Couth free posters, I guess. But then there is that great concern about the bonded GPRS channels and the resulting deadly handset receiver power output levels. Time to invest in Mu Metal? Snip The $100 billion dollar question remains: are 3G frequencies worth it? According to Nick Jones, the research director of Gartner Group Europe the operators have paid $5,000 for each 3G handset they are likely to sell and that's before they start paying for network builds.
